The Breathing Room Reception
Continued
|
Visitors took the time to contemplate the thoughts and feelings behind each image and the accompanying text.

The response to the photographic exhibition was overwhelmingly positive. Some attendees had little knowledge of the emotional impact of cystic fibrosis and found the experience educational, profound and enlightening. As a member of the CF community, we are immensely impressed with The Breathing Room's creative wisdom, dedication and commitment to promote this often-neglected component of the CF experience- the psychosocial and emotional impact of the disease. The photographs allow CF adults to create personal images of how CF affects their lives emotionally or spiritually, images that through analogy, metaphor or by purely depicting life with CF, provide an intense reflection of each person's unique experience.
